[plug] mice

[Ben Jensz]

I personally like the MS Intellimouse Explorer (rev3) I've got at home.  
I've got fairly big hands, but the size of the mouse means that I don't 
have to have my hand scrunched up at all to use it, I find it quite 
comfortable to use.

I have an MS Wheelmouse optical at work that is smaller and not as 
comfortable to use.  I've used those Logitech trackballs before as well 
and they aren't too bad comfort wise, they just take a while to get used 
to controlling :)

Personally I'd recommend (if you can) going into a large computer store 
that has keyboards / mice on display that you can touch and see what 
feels comfortable for you.  The Hardly Normal store at Osborne Park had 
some on display like that last time I was down in Perth.
